Here we go again, claims made by a trump supporter, then refusing to provide proof, only inuendo / opinion.  To repeat, actual statements from Democratic leadership to support your claim - "For four years the Dems have rejected the results of the 2016 election"

Why are you posting an insult to the President of the United States of America? May I ask how the American President effects your life personally? What personal stake you have in who the President of the USA is, to such a degree it seems that you post insult after insult? You did not have anything to say in your post other then an insult at the President, and an evident disagreement with the way our Republic functions. The popular vote is not how we elect Presidents. So please tell me why you think that is of importance to you. Do you have a better political system where you hail from? If so please do tell me about it. Perhaps I will begin to see your point of view and I will tell all of my fellow Americans all about it. Perhaps we will find your idea enlightening and the word will spread into a nationwide movement for a new Amendment to our constitution to change our electoral system to one of your liking. So go ahead I am all ears. What is this all about for you?

Under Trump USA is the laughing stock of the world, if you cant see that then you need to start to watch and read neutral media sources, then you may actually realise the truth, the man is completely politically incompetent. If you hate Biden that's fine, just dont vote

Showing up for 5 minutes isn't fooling anyone!

yes that is what people do all the time all over the Country . They go to funerals that perhaps they would rather not attend..... to pay their respects sometimes simply because decorum demands. And when they do a certain respect of letting them peacefully perform that action is given. I am not a RBG fan as far as SOME of her court decisions, but I am someone who respects her position in American history on the Court and a great legal mind.  To reach the Supreme Court of the USA is quite an accomplishment.

 

It's not a replacement rush job it is a duty that he has to perform and he will. The truth is that Supreme Court justices of both sides often agree. This argument comes down to ROE V WADE that is about it. One side thinks they can select conservatives that may overturn that decision, the other side thinks they can prevent that decision being overturned. The fact is that both sides are wrong and that most likely the decision will not be overturned nor is it in danger of being overturned. More likely is perhaps a narrowed scope if given the opportunity.

 

The reality is both sides are trying to put Justices that are either more liberal or conservative in their outlook on the Court with variable degree of success. The ROE argument is what adds fuel to their fire as a political argument. Life is going to go on with little change after Trump appoints the next Justice. Despite all the panic on the left.

 

Just giving my opinion. Hope no one is offended or needs me to post links to someone else's opinion to try and validate my own opinion.

Ginsberg had a wonderful sense of humor, and unlike Trump, did not take herself too seriously. So, she would be laughing at his public ridicule, at her funeral, I am sure. People have a right to express themselves, and any talk of decorum here does not apply, when it is pertaining to the man possessing the least amount of decorum, dignity, grace or elegance, to ever to occupy the office. You simply cannot use the word dignity and Trump in the same sentence. 

OK, so you think that its perfectly acceptable for people to voice their opinion at funerals .

So, you would have had no objections had Trump voiced his opinion at the funeral and told everyone there why they should vote for him at the top of his voice ?

No I don't see that. Nor would I care if you hold that view. There are no neutral news media sources. No such thing exists. Ask the owners of the media outlets you speak of.

 

As for Trump being politically incompetent, well he never was a politician and his first national race was to be President of the USA, and it was his first time, so when it comes to Politics, I am not sure what other gauge to use sir, but by that one he seems to have come out very well in terms of competence. Is there another political gauge that you are using?

 

As for disliking Biden. Honestly, I always liked Biden. He was always one of my favourite Democrats for decades, what with his working man from Scranton riding the train shtick and  all that - you remember right? But recently, I am turned off by the antics of him and his son, and also feel deeply sorry for him being trotted around in what appears to be a haze. He just looks that way to me. But I don't hate him I don't think, but I will vote. For Trump.

I had provided a suitable link.

 

Think political campaign strategies.  Every campaign has them.  In the event of losing the election what are your options?  Does a possibility exist for altering true election results?  What might those possibilities be?  Who are your allies?  MSM and social media, certainly.  How do employ them?

 

I read an interesting piece which describes one such strategy, which I'll condense.

 

Big Tech, currently unrestrained in suppressing information and silencing opposition voices, works with other organizations such as the Transition Integrity Project (a misnomer), purges any content questioning the project's tactics or potential fraud with mail-in ballots.  Extend election day into January under the pretense of "counting every vote" until enough votes are had to declare Biden the winner.  In the meanwhile, MSM and Big Tech rig content in the Dems favour while simultaneously suppressing opposition content.

 

I'm not saying this is what the Dem's actual strategy is.  What I am saying is that this is what I believe their strategy to be.

 

Hence the 600 lawyers as you'll need them to contest any irregularities and the validity of certain mail-in ballots for any number of reasons.

 

It is funny how you go on and on about plans, insinuating nefarious intentions and whatnot. Somehow in your world, the Trump campaign doesn't have anything to do with such things. No, it's just the Democrats - sure, believable. Not.

 

As for that 'piece' you condensed, got to wonder why no link - wouldn't be from one of them dodgy sources Trump supporters often resort to? Or perhaps not quite as partisan about things as you are?

Just like there’s a “time and a place” to talk about gun control, which is always “never,” right? Of course the jeering is disrespectful; that’s the whole point. What Trump and his lackeys have never figured out is that he’s a civil servant who works for the American people, and he has to earn their respect. He has clearly not earned the respect of a growing majority of Americans. If I’d been there, I’d have given him a loud piece of my mind as well ...

Honestly, I am more concerned with the actual policy that develops from my own Country and to lessor degree that of the UK then I am of personality. Action is what concerns me, as defined by result, which comes from policy decisions that come from the administration. Nothing else really concerns me short of criminal behaviour and I do not see that from Trump despite all the claims otherwise that come from the left.

 

Likewise I see no criminal behaviour to my knowledge anyway from Boris Johnson. Further even if I thought Boris Johnson was a big idiot, I would not spend my time here posting that he is a big idiot because - what kind of reason would I have to do such a thing? Unless I detested Boris Johnson because I don't know maybe if I hated English people in general, or he had some sort of obscure policy that affected my family somehow. I mean it would be rather silly of me to spend my time denigrating Boris Johnson. I would have to be a moron to spend all my time creating posts about every word out of Boris Johnson's mouth or his hairstyle or what he eats, etc or the mechanics of English Parliamentary Government, or something said in Question time. Seriously, I would have to be a complete lunatic to obsess about a foreign leader who has pretty much nothing to do with me.

Of couse actions are important but when you are leader of a nation words are important too. And Trump constantly displays such boorish, mean spirited and ignorant behaviour it astonishes me that such a man can be leader of a country such as the US.

This is the funniest post I have ever read here and a keeper. So this is what it comes to? Put this with the liberal freakout videos on youtube. So here we have it: For the President of the United States to replace a Supreme Court seat when he is empowered by the Constitution, and with control of the Senate, its like spitting on the former Justices grave.

 

Just when you thought you heard it all. We can only laugh. Laugh hardily to the point that it hurts. And the person who wrote this? Deeply cares about RBG right? Sat at home late at night watching compilations of her humour and hours reading her Court decisions. RBG a deep deep mover no doubt in this persons life. A life long RBG fan? I know that all of you people from around the world are deeply troubled by RBG passing, deeply troubled about what ROE V WADE means to you, about the quickness of the replacement. I feel for you all . My heart bleeds. Can I have someone to hug? For humanity? For the Environment? For those deeply troubled.

I dunno, Donald Trump managed to become the President strictly on the basis of his powerful personality. He also seems to have the love of his immediate family, and that is telling of how he gets along with people close to him. He regularly packs stadiums, and people seem to find him entertaining and even inspiring. Am I not telling the truth here?

 

As for being a misogynist  huh? Misogynists have no reason for marriage or children. They hate women, they hate being around them except to perhaps use them and abuse them, but Donald Trump does not seem to be surrounded by people like that. Even the women who have cast accusations against him seem to not paint him in that manner.

 

I mean he never seems to have had any links to abusing women for power or out of a power position. I mean no history of using an intern in the white house by sticking a cigar up her vagina or anything like that. As for being sly, he seems to be a pretty out in the open guy, in fact that seems to be his major problem is that he speaks his mind right of the top of his mind without stopping to give some thought. He isn't sneaking around like Anthony Wiener, he isn't spying on people or dropping his pants in front of women like Bill Clinton.  

 

Nixon, yes, he was politically sly alright. He was a politician for life, quite unlike Trump. Nixon got caught when he tried to hide that his subordinates had hired some thugs to break in and steal information (SPY) from his opponents. Quite unlike Donald J Trump who has had to defend himself his entire Presidency and before from American intelligence operatives that appear to have been loyal to the opposition (at least as evidenced by their own words) trying to spy on him and take down his Presidency. They even made up nasty stories about him which I will not repeat here.

Trump is the poster boy for extremism, ignorance, spite, lack of civility and lack of presidential decorum. So it's hardly surprising that what he dishes out constantly he ends up getting in return.

The proof is everywhere.  C'mon, man.  There are no statements to quote as the Dems don't regularly come out and bluntly say it.  But their deeds are the evidence.  Russiagate, the Mueller probe, and the impeachment are the major proofs.  It's all due to their rejection of the 2016 election results and their attempts to remedy it.

It sounds like you our blaming the President for people making the personal decision to kill police officers. maim them, burn down buildings, destroy Government property, kill innocent civilians, the outbreak and spread of Covid-19, that you believe in permanent lock-downs and the forced wearing of masks by American Citizens. You also believe that climate change is so pressing that you favour shutting down the entire oil and gas industry because we are going to die in 12 years or so if we do not. You likewise favour a treaty that grants economic favour to China based upon our taking the Communist Party of China's word on the matter that they will not use that money to build weapons, do I have you correct on all of this or would you disagree with me. You are an American right?
